windsurfing for all "its going to be a hot summer"
PACIFIC FLEET WINDSURFING.
Although our directive is to cater to any and all who wish to take up the sport of windsurfing, our primary focus is to encourage and support any Māori and Pacifica kids into the sport, who would not normally be encouraged into this adrenaline extreme sport. I believe after more than 30 years of windsurfing myself that the benefits of windsurfing combat mental health through stress release and the feeling of being Intune with nature has always made me wish I had been introduced to this sport in my young troubled years. At the time no one was offering to guide pacific and Māori youth into windsurfing, it was seen as an elitist sport, and a financial burden, we intend to take that burden away as much as possible through supplying equipment from beginner through to intermediate, until participants are old enough to know which direction they would be willing to take in this sport if it is their desire to continue, and with our help guide and direct them should they wish to pursue the Olympic dream.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
